Incidentally, it's not "huger" but "bigger". :D (At least, American English....)


i don't use bigger for humongous objects XD
maybe larger?

ha~u got me.............i was thinking of this kind of situation cos I did see english ppl do the same!

precisely, it is incorrect. probably it depends on which part is more important. if u say what it was sami who told me bla bla bla, same tense within one clause. if u emphasize the stamtement whoever said that before, use different tense then....

i dont know........I need help (from MYRION><)
I don't get ur second part//?///.

i remember that if the situation is an universal truth..then it doesn't matter when it comes to tenses,,?????
me need help tooo!

i'll have more questions about tense!!!(while im writing my essay)

i once used "first and foremost" in a data management report, and my teacher crossed it out....whywhywhy????

"first and foremost"--it's a adv phrase. i cannot recognize the problem without the whole sentence which lizard whote:o:o

i thought that the earth is huger than the sun.
To me, it's incorrct. should be
i thought that the earth was huger than the sun.
the statement u claimed before was wrong as u emphasized that u THOUGHT~it doenst mean that AT THE PRESENT the earth is huger than the sun

same here. bird's explanation is correct.
it's not a truth that the earth is larger than the sun. basically a dependent clause has to choose the same tense with the main clause to avoid needless shifts. however, we use different tenses in noun or adj clause to represent different meanings in fact.

bigger is not formal...that's it~
for size, huger, larger~
for value, greater~

i am coming:):)
big, large, great these 3 adj r frequently used with different specific nouns. large is formal than big in writing.
in my opinion, the sentense above should be "i thought that the earth is larger than the sun."

as for sami's example, daytime is "really" longer in summer.
no matter what tense the descriptive clause is, the following noun clause is always in the form of present one.

能不能给出一些论文和报告的格式写法的建议。我只在考雅思时才接触到格式方面的东西,而那些太小儿科了,不够专业。

刚刚search了一些IEEE的journel,里面没有一个用"we"的,不过帖子题目是关于写英文论文,我想差距就在这里吧。


IEEE 的比較engineering吧。。。
如果找些ACM的, 應該是用"we"比較多的。

我是说,如果你想强调当时说话的是SAMI, 那2个时态相同.如果说的人无关紧要, 就把后面那个改成现在时.

不过HUGER听上去真的很别扭.....

像MYRION说的也是,如果后面那句话是客观存在的事实, 可以用现在时. 还有就是用QUOTATION, 这样可以避免AMBIGUITY

SAMI TOLD ME" DAYTIME IS LONGER IN THE SUMMER"

god!!!no one finds i made a typo=_=

the correct answer should be: i thought that the earth "was" larger than the sun. conversely, i thought that the sun "is" larger than the earth.
